TEST DRIVE MEME
Considering apping into MASK OR MENACE? Want to dip your toes into the setting and get a feel of whether your character will fit into it? Or maybe you're just cruising and want to play around? Then you've come to the right place!
Pick any of the following scenarios below or feel free to make up your own, but don't be afraid to throw yourself at anyone's thread, either!
And remember to have fun!01. Your memory is hazy and you might feel increasingly frustrated or anxious, or maybe you're excited as soldiers march past, barely glimpsing you. One second you're somewhere underground, the next you're enveloped in blue light, and suddenly you find yourself directly under Flordia sun's bright and burning glare. A female soldier steps toward you with a wide smile on her face and directs you to a car, ready to debrief you. You realize you are not the only one, surrounded by equally confused or eager faces... and you're all sporting a digital tattoo on your wrist.
02. Welcome to Cape Canaveral, where the smell of the ocean is in the air and locals are more than pleased to see new imPorts roaming their streets. They wave, they cheer, they ask for pictures as politely as they can. The more inhuman you look, or if you're wearing a costume, the more likely locals are to approach. Hey, enjoy the moment! The popular malt shop is offering you a free drink if you need it.
03. The technology in this world is certainly something. The cars are clearly modeled after popular 50s cars, but they hover several feet above the ground as they drive down the street. There are digital jukeboxes in restaurants, motorcycles also hover through traffic, advertisements can be seen on a digital projector on the taller buildings. Even kids on skateboards appear to drift a safe ten feet off the ground while playing!
04. Wherever you are, you can hear the loud revving of an engine, distance at first before you finally see it: a hovercar bursting around the corner, going beyond the maximum speed limit and just barely making its sharp turn. It doesn't appear to be slowing down any time soon, not with two police cars trailing it... and uh oh. Those skateboarding kids don't have much time to get out of the way as the car comes speeding down the road. You've been brought here for a reason Hero — so you better act fast.

[ stiles gives her a capital-l Look of disbelief. ]
I'm not the one who just—
[ but okay, okay, superpowers are a thing here. and they don't even (or don't always) come with the lunar cycle pricetag. he cuts himself off with a frustrated gesture. ]
No, okay, I'm fine. I mean, yes, I'm bleeding, but it's nothing, just a scratch.
[ a couple of scratches. whatever. it's not like he's gonna begrudge them when it could have been much, much worse. and anyway, his adrenalin is through the roof right now. he'll bitch later when he can actually feel them. ]
How about you, are you even slightly injured?

Maybe the Camarilla didn't like Florida, or maybe this was a lot more complicated then the apparent ten year nap she had taken without her notice. Holy shit her head felt like an overripe melon. ]
Me? Yeah, super; I'm super.
[ She wobbles and starts to think everyone still meandering around before the cops show smell like a bleeding rare porterhouse. Wait- no. Bad. Very bad. Not in the city. Conceal don't feel. ]
I don't know about you but that sidewalk looks real damn comfy.
[ Bader parks down on the sidewalk ledge with the least through traffic and tries to will her tummy to stop all the rumbling like pooh bear. ]
You know that the cops will want a statement, right?
